Tetron
|
|
Description:
|
Tetron, a hybrid polyester, has been specially designed
to suit the requirements of finfish cages throughout the
world. It is the FIRST and ONLY cage mesh that was
designed exclusively for the aquaculture industry.
|
Dimensions:
|
2.85cm to 5.72cm, (1 1/8" to 2 ¼").
|
Use:
|
Finfish cage mesh.
|
How it is used / deployed:
|
As in typical finfish net pen applications.
|
Features / benefits:
|
Lower water absorption means lighter weight when doing
change over. When treated with anti-foulant less
material is used, which results in less cost. Higher
specific gravity means a better sink rate when first
setting the net (20 percent more than nylon). Wet
tensile strength is greater than nylon, Thinner twine
with same denier size means better water flow and less
fouling area. Elongation / shrinkage is much less than
nylon. Tetron is softer than nylon - which means less
trauma on fish's skin, Is naturally more resistant to UV
derogation without treatment. Nylon is 10% weaker after
only 24 months.

Manufactured in Japan.
